Then God stirred the hearts of the priests and Levites and the leaders of the tribes of Judah and Benjamin to return to Jerusalem to rebuild the Temple of the Lord. And all their neighbors assisted by giving them vessels of silver and gold, supplies for the journey, and livestock. They gave them many choice gifts in addition to all the free-will offerings.
Ezra 1:5-6
The leaders of Erza’s community dreamed dreams of rebuilding God’s house in Jerusalem, and that fueled their passion to return and take action. To those whose hearts God had inspired, the desire was given to accomplish a tremendous task.
Any task we take on must have energy behind it; a true desire. God will supply the desire to do what is important, if we allow Him to move our hearts.
Application
Look at how you spend your time and energy. Are God’s heart and your heart in tune?
Prayer
God, may my dreams be your dreams, and may I have a burning desire to do your will.
